About product

Photo-etched hand tools 1:48 — Aber

A photo-etched metal set in 1:48 scale from the Polish maker Aber. It holds the hand and pioneer tools that military vehicles carried fixed to the hull and the fenders. It is not a model but an accessory: the metal parts have the correct profiles and thin edges, whereas plastic tools tend to be noticeably oversized in this scale.

What it is for

Tools on the outside of a vehicle are one of the details that decide how believable a model is — they break up the flat expanse of armor and offer a place for the color contrast of wood against metal. The set also suits a diorama, where the tools lie loose beside the vehicle or in the hands of figures.

Building and painting tips

Separate the photo-etched parts with a sharp knife on a hard mat or with photo-etch scissors, and make the bends in a bending tool or along a steel ruler. Glue them with cyanoacrylate glue and degrease the surfaces beforehand. Lay down a base coat suitable for metal before painting, otherwise the paint holds badly on the etched parts.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of military vehicles in 1:48 scale
  • Builders of dioramas and vignettes
  • Anyone who wants to replace coarse plastic tools
  • More experienced modelers — the parts are very small

This is a detail set, not a complete model. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, it is a detail accessory. Get the base plastic model separately; the set only replaces or adds to its parts.

No, it is a general-purpose accessory usable on most models of military vehicles in 1:48 scale and in dioramas.

Over a base coat for metal, separate the wooden parts from the metal ones, pick them out with a wash and run a dry brush over the edges.

We recommend cyanoacrylate glue. Degrease the surfaces before gluing and roughen them slightly; ordinary plastic cement does not hold on metal.
